Hello, I'm new here.

When I was around 9 my parents bought our first computer. And there was one game that I played a lot. Only, I can't remember the name of it.

Here is what I remember about it...
It was some sort of building game, you would build houses and trees, and all sorts of other things. I remember that everything was in the shape of a ball(thats what I think anyway...). Thats all I really remember about it.(not much of a description, I know)

So if anybody knows the name, please let me know what its called.

Thank you.

In what year was that? Knowing the approximate time helps us narrow down the possibilities.

For the moment, there are two games that come to my mind: Simcity and Simfarm.

13 November 1989 + 9 = 1998/1999

Like Luchsen said, around 1998/99.

And I'm sure it wasn't any of the sim games or populous.

Thanks for the replies.

Edit- The date actually could have been around 1996/97. Because I remember playing Chex Quest around that time.
